Audit and Independent Reviews
Audits and independent reviews are a statutory requirement from some companies and institutions, and many also opt to have these in order to offer reassurance to their investors/trustees that their books, records and accounting system processes are effective and controlled. The overall aim of audits and independent reviews is for the auditors to form an independent opinion regarding the completeness and accuracy of the financial statements for a given period as it involves the examination of the company's financial and supporting records. Audits and independent reviews still remain one of the most effective ways to give your business credibility. Audits and Independent Reviews can assist your business as follows: improve tax efficiency, improve management information, identify potential weaknesses or threats and ways to alleviate them, provide external reports to suit the need of stakeholders/trustees, verification of records, detection and prevention of possible fraud or error. Cameron, Ferriby and Co offer a full audit and independent review service for any business.

Book-keeping and Management Accounts
Many small company's find keeping their accounts records up to date a difficult process often due to lack of time, which can often hinder them at times when they need to know how their business is performing.
Cameron, Ferriby and Co can assist with your book-keeping and management accounts requirements as follows:
• Preparing Monthly, quarterly or half yearly management accounts which are often useful for businesses not only to show them how the business has progressed throughout the year but will also give an idea of cash flows, working capital requirements as well as assisting lenders in continuing to provide funding. We are aware more creditors are asking for recent management information.
• Having your book-keeping completed on a monthly or quarterly basis (usually to coincide with VAT returns) can help a business to see where it can reduce its overheads and increase its profit margins as well as help it correctly see which areas/products are bringing it the most revenue. Having these Accounts prepared professionally each month or quarter ensures all the information you are relying to make decisions on is accurate and independently prepared.
